This state of the art facility which brings together neurorehabilitation and neuropsychiatry services, currently being delivered over several locations in the North East, will provide a 65 bed centre of excellence for the provision of specialist services for stroke and head injury victims.

The project incorporates innovative design and artistic elements including the commissioning of a chapel and other artwork by artists selected following the involvement of the Arts Council. The centre will also house extensive therapy facilities including a hydrotherapy pool, sensory gardens and a driver rehabilitation circuit.

This two storey 10,200m² facility is scheduled to open in late 2006 after which Clugston Facilities Management will provide maintenance services for a further 30 years.
